BEABA Babypote - Sorbet

Comments about Babypote - Sorbet:

I could not wait to try the Babypote because my son loves the squeeze packets and isn't a fan of eating smoothies I make with a bowl and spoon. I used it for the first time today and I wish I had never purchased it. The silicone is very very soft so I could not lean it on anything. As soon as I put it down, my son tried to pick it up and it squirted all over the table and floor. Nice. I cleaned it up and made him another smoothie. This time he was drinking and sucking it out. Again some squirted on the table when he went to put it down. When he said he was done, there was probably an ounce left in the bottom that he could not get out. What a waste. I never had to clean so much when he ate the smoothies with a bowl and spoon. Thumbs way down for the Babypote. Good idea, terrible execution.

I bought this product for travel with my 9 month old. I hate how overpriced the babyfood bags are compared to the jars, but love the convenience of the bags.

This product was exactly what I needed. It IS also super easy to clean as promised.

The only thing that is tricky is knowing how much baby food comes out and how much is left in it. Both easy to fix.

My baby does very well with it when I squit it in his mouth, but is not yet super good with it on his own. It has gotten a little messy when he grabs it, but feeding babies is always messy.

I love it!

We wanted to be able to save some $ by having our own purees instead of the pouches when we are on the go and it works great (with quite liquid purees).

The "not so good" part of it is that you need to really blend your food very well, otherwise it gets stuck.

The silicon is also less easy for the baby to use on his/her own as it doesn't create "vide" as it gets empty, and that's better with the pre-made pouches.

Still, I would recommend it.

We love our "squeezy-circles" as we call them. The trick to not spilling is making sure that the foods you put in there are not too liquid-y. Varona has been using hers since she was 5 months old without any problems.

*ADD SOME BABY CEREAL (RICE, OATMEAL, ETC.)
I usually make a batch of soup in the beginning of the week for the whole family. I will usually fill up the squeezy-circle 3/4 of the way with soup and then fill the rest up with some baby cereal or rice for a thicker consistency and stir it up with a chop stick or baby spoon. I do the same when I make her smoothies in the pouch for some fruity treats. It's also a great way to get her the fiber she needs.

*DO NOT SQUEEZE UNTIL IT'S ALMOST EMPTY
Also, I tell anyone who watches her for us not to squeeze the pouch until the end or else it will turn into a mess. At 7 mos. she already senses that and slurps it out most of the way then only squeezes when it's almost empty.

I was super excited to not have to buy single packets. I bought 2 for days when I do Farmers Market. Our test run at home, thankfully, turned into bath time. Baby is 11 mos. I gave it to him, it flopped over and food went everywhere. I returned both and I'm hoping someone has or comes out with a better design. Back to singles.

It's too soft so it flops. Would be a great teether, but too pricey for that.

The hole on top is large and wide open so there's no escape from a large spill.

So sad. It's cute!

Great, eco-friendly, inexpensive substitute for the applesauce pouches we buy that my son LOVES. We just fill this with applesauce or other fruit sauce or puree and can pack it in his lunch or throw it in my bag for an on-the-go snack. Mango-spinach-pear and plum are favorite sauces I can make at home and still have him eat on the go!

I bought this b/c my LD would not eat from a spoon and was leery of finger foods. I fill it with my homemade purees and just squeeze it in her mouth - she loves it!! Super easy to clean and fill and when she gets older it'll be great for yogurts, etc.

Comments about Babypote - Sorbet:

I thought this would be a great (and green!) alternative to expensive baby food pouches. In theory, it is. In reality, it's difficult to fill; the bottom is rounded, so you have to hold it while you fill it. The food flows quickly through the spout, which is great for foods with texture, but not so great if your child squeezes it at all.

Comments about Babypote - Sorbet:

This is easy to clean, easy to use. Save money and help the environment with this product! My kids love using this... both my 5 year old and 1 year old fight over it. My only complaint is that they don't have other colors so that each kid can have their own.

Comments about Babypote - Sorbet:

This product is perfect when you are on the go and need to give an afternoon snack to your toddler. Prevents any mess, no spoons needed, plus cheaper than buying portion pureed fruits/apple sauce.
The only thing I wish you were carrier the two other colors that are available in France.
Thanks for selling it in the USA though :)

I was so disappointed!! I've waited for something like this for awhile. It's great to transport food, but my toddler lives "crushers!" I was really wanting to put my infants purred veggies in this for my toddler. He usually uses the spout like a straw. He can not "suck" the food out of this. I even tried it and it's quite complicated. Not worth the money at all!
On the flip side it's easier to fill and clean than I had anticipated.
